Excerpt from Proceedings at the Inauguration of Frederick A P. Barnard S. T. D., LL. D: As President of Columbia College, on Monday, October 3, 1864 At the stated meeting of the Trustees of Columbia College, in March, A.D. 1864, the President of the College, Charles King, LL.D., tendered to the Board his resignation of the office which he held, in the following letter: - Dear Sir, - In pursuance of the purpose announced by me yesterday at the meeting of the Trustees, I hereby tender my resignation of the office of President of Columbia College, to take effect at a period not, later than the next Commencement, at the close of the month of June, or at any earlier date that may possibly be deemed advantageous for the College. I am admonished by advancing years of the need of repose, and feel that the daily responsibilities and cares of the Presidency are becoming too burdensome.
